Police arrested seven people in Spain and three in Thailand in an international sting on a group suspected of forging passports for an al-Qaeda-linked terrorist group, the Spanish Interior Ministry said today. The detainees formed part of a group based in Thailand and linked to Lashkar-e-Taiba, a Pakistan-based Islamic group blamed for the 2008 Mumbai attacks that killed 166 people.

The detainees included six Pakistanis and one Nigerian. The ministry said the group stole passports, mostly from tourists in the Barcelona area, and sent them to Thailand to be doctored and later distributed to groups linked to al-Qaeda. The ministry said the group had also supplied forged documents to other groups, including the Tamil Tiger rebels who were crushed last year by Sri Lankan troops after a quarter-century war.

Unfortunately Asra Nomani IS not 'SELF HATING' she just hates all of her fellow Muslims(and us Americans) because she sees them as inferior to herself.After all the state of Israel itself has had her as a guest in their Islam and semite hating country.And it is obvious that Asra with her Washington,D.C. and Georgetown University and Wall Street Journal and probable CIA connections is no ordinary Muslim but one who puts her services to the aid of Israelis who murder real semites and the U.S.regime that does the same in Iraq and Afghanistan long after it has been common knowledge that Iraqis and Afghan peasants had nothing whatsoever to do with 9/11.As you can read from Asra's reply to me at the bottom she is silent regarding Richard Reid 'the bomber's' visit to Israel(the only Muslim I know of besides herself who was given VIP treatment to enter and leasve Israel on thei own terms),and his connections with the Israeli airport 'security' company ICTS International and El Al that faciltated his trip to Israel from Schiphol Airport Amsterdam pre 9/11 and then allowed him to board American Airlines from De Gualle Airport France to the U.S.with his alledged shoe bomb a short time after 911 just as they allowed the Nigerian Islamic 'crotch bomber' to do on flight 253 from Amstersdam to Detriot this last Christmas 2009. Daniel Pearl’s supposed friend,Asra Nomani, who thinks she’s Miss Islam USA is covering up (not investigating!),the death of her ‘friend’ Daniel Pearl and as far as I can tell so is Daniel Pearl’s daddy.Neither Asra Nomani nor Judea Pearl really want Pearl’s 8 year old son to know the truth because that would expose Israelis of ICTS International that ‘guarded’ Logan Airport Boston and Newark Airport on 9/11 and who shortly later allowed Richard Reid the shoebomber to board American Airlines from DeGualle Airport Paris France with his ‘shoe bomb’ and of course more recently the Nigerian ‘crotch bomber’ to board flight 253 at the Dutch anti-Islamic politician Geert Wilder’s Schiphol Airport in Amsterdam on Christmas 2009. Judea Pearl and Islamic Tantric Yogi,(Asra Nomani), are part of the cover up of Pearl’s death and Judea Pearl dirties his son’s name as well by not coming clean about Richard Reid’s trip to Israel pre 9/11 that was aided by both Israel and ICTS International that allowed him to fly from Amsterdam to Israel supposedly to visit his friends at Hamas ! If Jude Pearl were sincere in wanting to expose all involved in the death of his son regardless of where it leads or Asra Nomani were sincere in her desire to fight for women’s rights in Islamic countries both would have my sympathy.But it appears Nomani is only concerned about herself and the right wing nuts,murderers and money launderers and terrorists she protects such as U.S. government CIA connected Fox News Middle East ‘expert’ Mansoor Ijaz whose contacts in Pakistan led to Daniel Pearl’s death in the first place.And obviously Judea Pearl wants to ignore the fact Richard Reid the ’shoe bomber’ was allowed to enter Israel on El Al pre 9/11 and ICTS International's Israeli spooks later allowed him to board at De Gualle Airport,Paris,France to fly American Airlines to the U.S. with his 'shoe bomb'. - Tony Ryals Below Asra Nomani's reply to my queries on the thedailybesast re Daniel Pearl,Richard Reid and ICTS International proves Asra Nomani is purposefully silent re the Israeli ICTS International's involvement with and roe in allowing Richard Reid 'the shoe bomber' to board at De Gualle for the U.S.shortly after 9/11/01 even though she knows Daniel Pearl's main explained reason for traveling to Pakistan in the first place was to investigate Richard Reid's past trips there.: AsraNomani Dear TonyRyals, Honestly, I don't really get where you're coming from. But, sadly, I never visited Israel with Danny. I went after Danny's murder with my family, after we had completed the hajj in Saudi Arabia. I had a gun pointed to my head as I walked through the checkpoint to get into the Dome of the Rock, where I wish all people could pray. It's easy to level conspiracy theories upon others. But I would gently suggest that the truth is far often much more boring. Right now, my highest priority is figuring out how to get my son weighed in for the "ankle biter" divison of tackle football and still get to Kings Dominion with a friend on Sunday. Boring. I'm not part of some grand conspiracy. I agree Mansur Ijaz is an interesting character. One day, I will pick up the phone to do a reported profile on him. Until then, thanks for writing, Asra 1:40 am, Sep 9, 2010
